Minecraft creator Markus “Notch” Persson has said Mojang is working with Warner Bros. on a film adaptation of the highly successful sandbox title.
“Someone is trying leak the fact that we’re working with Warner Brothers on a potential Minecraft Movie. I wanted to be the leak,” Notch said on Twitter.
Unfortunately, as the word “potential” suggests, the project is not yet a done deal. In a statement issued to Polygon, Notch said his early reveal was inspired by the impending leak.
“It’s for real. I think every part of that tweet was real, including me wanting to be the one to spill the news about a potential movie,” he said.
“It would be nice to tell people when it’s 100% solid rather than to leak it before it’s completely final, but our hands were a bit tied and rushed here.” Are you excited for a potential Minecraft movie?goo
